Studio Calico Crop and a few sketchy challenges

This weekend I actually managed to get quite a bit of scrappy time in! I even made 2 layouts in one day!! I know right?! I was excited to play along with Studio Calico's crop challenges and I managed to get three of them done! 

The first one was a layering challenge and I used a sketch from Elle's Studio. I used a ton of different layers on this layout. I started off by stamping and then I added some die cut leaves and added some gesso on top of them for some texture. Then I misted the gesso, then flicked paint and added paint circles that I stamped on with a toilet paper roll. Then I layered some paper, a glassine bag from my old Studio Calico Kits, then a layer of washi with some stamps on top. Oh, and I forgot to mention that I added all of those paper layers on top of some tags! I even added a stitched layer too! 



The next challenge was a photo inspiration challenge:

Here's the photo:


I just LOVE the flowy texture and colours and patterns of this picture!


I also used a sketch for this one too. This time it came from Let's Get Sketchy:


The last one was a sketch challenge:


here's the sketch:


Well that's all for today! I hope to get some time to play tomorrow on my birthday too!!
